Nah, it’s a tone knob

Yeah, turns out it’s kinda hard to dodge the draft for a war you hate when all the countries that allegedly oppose it closed their borders to you.

Back when Russia invaded Ukraine, they issued a statement about how they’re saddened that Europe has descended into violence and are calling for the region to give peace a chance. It was a solid troll.

Beowulf (2007).

Yes, the cgi aged badly, but everyone panned it for the plot change, which was the thing I liked about it the most!

If you were, you’d have written “am not” instead of “isn’t”.

And still in use in server racks, though not as originally designed.

Same with Mazovism, it incentivizes you to act like a jackass for very little payoff. It’s great design.

Cozy dystopia. God help me.

Calm down there, Posadas…

The purple people eater got them all, sadly.

More like Benjamin Lay.

I like how you’re upvoted because you’re the even comment, so people assume you’re continuing the argument without even reading the post.

Luce is light. Lucifer is bringer of light.

…and nothing of value was lost.

Yes, but the point stands: Lenin wasn’t grown in a vat in Berlin, he was only ever in Vienna because being in St. Petersburg would get him arrested. There are American political factions favored by certain foreign nations, but they are, at the end of the day, American political factions. And I frankly find it deeply depressing hilarious that the current state of the discourse seems to agree that foreigners are destroying the country, but can’t agree over which foreigners exactly. Talk about Overton loopholes.

I have to say, “The evil foreigners are to blame for us becoming fascist” is an onion-level take.

Yeah, the first time the press core deigned to call him “presidential” was when he launched rockets at Syria. The second time was when he assassinated Suleimani.

Through Beijing, in fact.

I’m actually shocked

I’m not. Ever since the war, every single closet xenophobe of the west has been taking full advantage of finally having an acceptable group of subhumans to hate. If any of this surprises you, you haven’t been paying attention.

Frankly that sounds like “OK, I did install a camera in your bedroom, but it’s not like it’s on or anything!”
